Large golf resort near Great Adventure amusement part. Great location for golf, family fun and a short drive to downtown. Service was very good at hotel except for my check in which took 20 minutes. Francesca's restaurant is outstanding. Palmer's golf course is one of the very best in the area. Nice breakfast buffet each day and worth the package. Disappointed that the spa was closed on President's day weekend. Seems like a bad time to close the spa.

Room Tip: Rooms overlooking the courtyard have a nice view at night.

I recently was lucky enough to experience an AMAZING meal and heart-warming evening at Francesca's at The Westin La Cantera. My special dinner would not have been possible if it wasn't for the following staff: Stephanie Rideout for coordinating the evening, arranging to have a beautiful floral centerpiece & giving us a first-class smile; Shane Tiller for his warm greeting, attentive service and much appreciated suggestions for tourist day trips; Stephen Gonzalez for taking the time to welcome us, offer menu recommendations and share his culinary experience; and last but not least ... our Server, Jeremey, who was extremely professional, conscientious and made it all possible to have an enjoyable evening. Oh, and by the way, the cuisine was EXCELLENT and presentation truly stunning!

I was here for a conference; the facility is very nice. The public areas are large and pretty. I really enjoyed the 1-mile long nature trail and saw some interesting birds, including a pair of Road Runners.The rooms are not well insulated. In 4 nights I was here, I was awakened twice by people in the hall, and again when an alarm went off in the next room.The food is good here, and there a several places to eat, from a coffee shop to a fairly high end restaurant, and another in between. The mushroom empanadas were wonderful! The lobby bar is really nice, with two large fireplaces, and plenty of room to sit and enjoy the view of the lovely terrace behind the hotel.As for the "hill country view" from my room: it is now marred by a denuded hillside where a housing development is going up!The staff is helpful, and there is a free shuttle to a large shopping mall that has restaurants, but it is about a $50 taxi ride into town, and a $28 shuttle ride to and from the airport. I am glad I am staying over a few days downtown so I will get a chance to experience San Antonio, which you can't really do from here, if you don't have a car.

Room Tip: I would not pay anything extra for the "hill country view," it's not that great.

Just wanted to say that las casitas at the westin la cantera hill country resort are amazing! My family and I had almost a perfect stay. Only thing is staying away from main hotel cause room service food to suffer a bit not on favor but cold food. But otherwise this property is a must go and pay the upgrade for las casitas so worth it. Great hotel, and the sunday bunch made up for the cold food. Thankyou la cantera

Excellent room and ambiance. Conference bathrooms required repeated request for refreshing soap and towals - - unacceptable. Views are formidable and the golf course was the home of the Valero Texas Open for a decade. The hotel is far enough from the highway to avoid the noise but close enough for ready access from the airport.

Great location near San Antonio and the Texas Hill Country in a peaceful setting with expansive views. Very kind, friendly, helpful staff, the nicest among the many the Westin I have been. Unless you want to spend the whole time at the resort or at the shopping Malls nearby, it is good to have a rental car to explore the area. I was happy to be on the 7th floor with private lounge breakfast to start the day. The Market shop in the hotel has very good in house made ice cream.Sara, the manager at the reception, is great.

Room Tip: We had a room overlooking the pond, but you can also have pool view or city view. They are all nice.

Last weekend my boyfriend & I took a trip here for an overnight stay getaway from all the All Star madness in our home city of Houston,Tx. We just wanted to get out of the city & relax for a day. Upon arrival to check out everyone on staff was great! We had a hillside view & it was amazing to wake up to, as we had a huge picture window opposite our bed & all I can say is, Niiiiice! Though the furniture was a bit dated in the room, the comfy bed made up for that. It almost too comfy, but I don't think any bed good be too comfy, comfy is a very good thing. We were so fortunate to have obtained a late check out at 4pm, it was much appreciated & we didn't feel rushed as normal when having to be checked out by noon. We certainly enjoyed that comfy bed & the view for a few more hours. The breakfast was great, we chose the buffet, yummy belgian waffels & strawberries I must say, & they're made into the shape of the great state of Texas, mmmhmmm! ;-) We enjoyed a really nice evening for dinner in the hotel lounge, Steinheimers Lounge. Another plus, the food was great, the drinks were on point & our waiter was always at hand checking on us but not too overbearing. The only thing that I can say went wrong here is that we were to be given vouchers as part of our package for breakfast, & we didn't recieve them, but it was quickly taken care of by Hector at the check in desk in less than 2 min.,Thanks Hector! :-) We've already started planning to come back with the little ones possibly during spring break, but for sure during the summer months.

Room Tip: Take the time to enjoy The Steinheimer Lounge, you won't be disappointed.
